Article Synopsis
- Circulating tumor cells (CTCs) are important for understanding cancer development and spread, but analyzing them in blood is challenging due to their rarity.
- A new method using an innovative nanobiointerface, which combines silver nanorods and special DNA probes, has been developed to efficiently capture and detect CTCs without damaging them.
- Tests showed that this interface can capture a high percentage of cancer cells and maintain their viability, making it promising for use in clinical settings to analyze CTCs in patient blood samples.
Importance: Septal extension graft is an effective procedure in tip plasty because it can provide stable structural support for the nasal tip. However, in Asian patients septal cartilage is much weaker, thinner, and smaller than that of white people, causing the existing caudal septal cartilage and the septal extension graft to deviate to the opposite side of graft placement.
Objective: To introduce an effective and reliable modified septal extension graft in tip plasty.
